A MASS NUMBER is the sum of protons and electrons in an atom's nucleus; and it corresponds to the rounded-off value of an element's atomic mass.
Which of the following has a lower MASS NUMBER compared to the element on its left?
Cobalt (Co)
Iodine (I)
Nickel (Ni)
Tellurium (Te)
- 5. Multiple Choice
Be sure to use the ptable.com to respond to this question.
AN ATOMIC NUMBER is the number of protons. And in stable elements and isotopes, the number of protons is the same as the number of electrons.
Which PAIR of isotopes have EQUAL number of protons and electrons?
Carbon-12 and Carbon-13
Hydrogen-1 and Hydrogen-2
Nitrogen-14 and Nitrogen-15
Oxygen-16 and Oxygen-18
The 4 pairs of isotopes have equal number of protons and electrons because they are ALL stable atoms.
- 6. Multiple Choice
If the MASS NUMBER (A) is determined by adding the number of protons (p+) and the number of neutrons (n0), mathematically, how would you determine the number of neutrons?
n0 = A + p+
n0 = A - p+
n0 = A * p+
n0 = A / p+
